Hi Mark,
Remember you are not 'pushing' the aircraft in the direction you want i.e. you do not push the right foot to push the right hand side in front of the left so that it goes left...

The rudder is located on the back edge of the stabilizer, or fin, and is controlled by 2 pedals at the pilot's feet.
When the pilot pushes the left pedal, the rudder moves to the left and this in turn causes the airplane to yaw to the left, because the air running over the stabilizer and rudder is now pushing harder on the left side of the rudder than on the right.

Again very simply,
To turn left, push the left pedal.
To turn right, push the right pedal.
Anything more than that can be confusing.God's in command, I'm just the Pilot.

Taupax,
No problem. It happens to all of us when we first start flying. Just get it right now before you are in a real plane....God's in command, I'm just the Pilot.
